how big is the box? might get it sent to my workplace if its not that big...

ive had the car for like 4 months now haha

Not that big, 300 x 100 x 75mm maybe?

Thanks got Mine :) now i just need to figure out how to fit them

The radiator hoses aren't too hard. At the lower left (drivers side) of the radiator, there's a drain plug, just unscrew it & remove the radiator cap from the housing to drain.

Then its just 4 phillips head screws to remove the 4 hose clamps on the old pipes. Bottom lower hose connection to the radiator is a bit dirty to get at, but can be done without jacking up the car.

I'd go grab some new hose clamps too. Whilst there's nothing wrong with the factory ones, they just look really sh*tty on these nice new hoses

The power steering hose isn't too hard to swap out, its just messy. Its best to try & drain the ps tank first. The stock clamps on this hose really should be swapped out too, they're those stupid spring clip type. Dunno why they've used them, especially with the amount of pressure that builds up in the ps system.

Thanks Ben for the Samco Hoses, They look Awesome
And thanks for organising the group buy

Yep thank you heaps ben. They are perfect :)

I don't have any, but give Mike @ Williams Race Service in QLD a ring. He organised the buy for us & has left overs
Make sure you mention you're from FTO Aus & he'll give you the Group Buy price.

EDIT: He's even listed them on the website now

omg, retail at $244!

btw, do you know what is the thickness of the hose and how many ply?

i am comparing against the silicone hoses offered by hostileperformance and RBPerformance as they are made from 4mm polyester reinforced silicone with a safe working temperature range of -40°C to +200°C and a burst pressure of 2MPa.
And the costs around A$140 to my door step.

i need radiator hoses now...

wanna run this group buy again? im probably in

Id be in also

I have seen those FTO UK stores selling brandless silicone hoses at much cheaper price. Can consider them

You're about 2 years too late.

Meanwhile, if you want factory hoses, contact dstocks.
